2026-08-17 22:15:57This guy's luck had always been off the charts.
Word was that last night he'd gone to work as a psychiatric patient's caretaker, and somehow managed to get the production crew hiding behind the scenes shut down entirely. He'd even alerted the Broadcast Standards Commission. Because of that, quite a few victims had gotten their compensation money back.A guy like that, you could believe he'd do just about anything. The one thing that was absolutely out of the question was him taking

Chapter 129
"Why does this look so familiar?"Jenna Sparks stared at the screen, her expression growing more rigid by the second. The decor, the signage outside the window, it all matched.Then it hit her.Her whole body went stiff. "What the hell? That's my store!"When the realization fully landed, Jenna felt like her throat had sealed shut. She couldn't get a single word out. Her eyes darted to the numbers on the screen: five million. The channel's Popularity Points had soared to five million, and Sam's Channel had rocketed to third place on the platform's Top 100 chart. The streamer name displayed clearly at the top read: Sam Sparks."Sam Sparks...?"Jenna's face drained of color. Her phone slipped from her fingers and hit the floor, the screen shattering on impact."No, no, no. That's impossible!" She shook her head hard. "Something's wrong here. There's no way he's an A-list streamer." She told herself she'd just been working too hard lately, that she wa

"Exactly!""She let it slip herself!""I knew it, she looks down on ordinary people!""Hey, aren't you a worker too?""Looking down on this person, looking down on that person!""You people have been way too spoiled!"Sam's few remarks detonated the crowd like a lit fuse. The onlookers erupted in outrage, voices overlapping in a rising tide of anger. Even the customers sitting inside the cafe nursing their drinks went pale, glancing at each other with mounting unease. Something told them this shop was about to become ground zero for a very public disaster."Check, please!""Let's go, let's go!"Anyone with half a brain wanted no part of this mess. They settled their tabs and hurried out, giving the storefront a wide berth. Even the employees lingering by the entrance exchanged guilty looks, a shared sense of dread passing between them without a word.Jenna Sparks's face drained of color."I... when did I ever say anything like t

For reasons she couldn't quite explain, the moment Jenna heard Sam's unwavering answer, Alex Cheek's heart settled completely."Sam! You're making your move?" he asked.The viewers in the livestream instantly perked up with excitement.[Sam's making his move? Now this is getting interesting!][I've got a feeling he's about to pull something epic!][All I want now is to watch this manager crash and burn!][Sam! Destroy her for us!][Brothers, get those gifts going!][Going absolutely crazy for Sam!!!]Fueled by the audience's enthusiasm, gifts of every kind poured in without end, flooding the screen across the entire platform.But Sam didn't spare the chat a glance. Instead, he stepped forward twice, deliberately putting on a look of barely contained fury."What you just said crossed a line!""Yeah, I'm poor!""But I still have my dignity!"At those words, the sneer on Jenna Sparks' face only deepened."Dignit

The words hung in the air, leaving an uncomfortable silence behind them. Sam paused for a moment, a faint flicker of déjà vu crossing his face. For some reason, that arrogant tone sounded strangely familiar, almost identical to what the Porsche saleswoman had said earlier. "You want to buy? Sorry, we don't sell to people like you."It was almost as if they had graduated from the exact same training program, using the same script to judge people before knowing the truth. Sam couldn't help but find it amusing. He decided to wait. The moment he placed that Diamond Card on the table, he knew their attitudes would change completely.The livestream chat immediately exploded with anger, with countless viewers furious at the way Sam was being treated.[Hold on! A coffee shop employee is really copping an attitude?][How much do you even make a month? What are you flexing?][The audacity to act superior in front of Sam, of all people. Unreal.][Sam

The man wore a smile that didn't reach his eyes, his gaze carrying the unmistakable condescension of someone who believed himself above everyone around him."We're just finishing our meal. We'll leave soon," Old Lee said with a good-natured chuckle.Sam said nothing, simply lifting his eyes and giving the man a single, flat look.That gaze hit the man like the edge of a blade scraping across something soft inside him. It made him even more irritated.A goddamn sanitation worker daring to look down on him? Was this a joke?"I'm just looking out for the store's image here. No need to make things difficult," the man said, still hovering behind them. "If you want to eat, there are plenty of other places to do it."[What does any of this have to do with him?][He's not even an employee. Why is he out here lecturing people?][Sitting near a doorway ruins their image? Give me a break!][Does he think walking into a fancy cafe automatically makes

[Ding! God-Tier Culinary Arts acquired!][Master of all ingredients and techniques beneath heaven, supreme and unchallenged in the culinary dao!]"Holy crap, I finally rolled something useful for everyday life!"Sam Sparks froze on the spot, genuinely stunned.Every ability he'd gotten before this had been practically useless in daily situations. Luck, swimming, reflexes: when did any of those come up in normal life? But now, at last, the System had delivered something he could actually use on a regular basis. God-Tier Culinary Arts was it, the moment everything changed.The instant the ability settled in, every recipe on the planet flooded into his mind: cooking methods from every cuisine, knife techniques, flavor profiles, and plating philosophies, all of it crammed into his brain in the span of a few seconds. Just like that, Sam possessed the instincts and muscle memory of a master chef who'd spent decades at the stove. Even his tongue felt sharper,
